Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of synergism of TCM medicinal oxygen therapy in treating acute cerebral infarction.Methods Eighty cases were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 40 cases in each group, and 1 case was lost in treatment group. Based on routine treatment, the control group was treated with low flow oxygen inhalation only, while the treatment group was treated with TCM medicinal oxygen therapy. The course of treatment was 2 weeks. The two groups were scored with National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Stroke Symptom Scale of TCM (SSTCM) before and after the course to evaluate the therapeutic effect. Results The scores of NIHSS and SSTCM in both groups after the treatment were with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the scores of NIHSS between two groups after the treatment (P=0.10). There were statistical difference in the scores of SSTCM between two groups after the treatment (P<0.05). The clinically curative effect rate in treatment group was76.9% (30/39), which was superior to that of 60.0% (24/40) in the control group, with statistical significance (P=0.27).Conclusion TCM medicinal oxygen therapy can improve the neurological deficit and enhance the efficacy.
